   Looks like she fell on a doorknob, and then fell on a bullet!

   Wait they’re making a prequel?!

   Alan Moore would be turning over in his grave (if he was dead… and not rasputin).

      In the movie it appears that way. In the comic it “appears” at the end of chapter 2 in an excerpt of “Under the Hood”, the fictional biography of Nite Owl 1. It reads, “In 1946, the papers revealed that the Silhouette was living with another woman in a lesbian relationship. Schexnayder [Silk Spectre’s agent] persuaded us to expel her from the group, and six weeks later she was murdered, along with her lover, by one of her former enemies.”

      I haven’t been following the Minutemen comic – so I’m not sure when it’s set, or how many issues it’s supposed to be; but Silhouette’s death is part of the “end” of the Minutemen. Dollar Bill gets shot not long afterwards and the Sally Jupiter leaves to marry her agent. So unless the comic is about the slow decline of the Minutemen – rather than the cool, action packed adventures against Moloch, etc – then I doubt she dies.

   This promises to be as deep, entertaining and as well written as the Star Wars prequels.

   Not every backstory needs to be told.

   i say this as im excited over prometheus but i f*****ng hate prequels with a passion.

   Sometimes there needs to be mystery and there is no point telling a story in greater detail we already know….. sometimes not knowing every exact detail helps make the story after it better.

   Prequels and remakes. Scource and Pillage.
